[@bontefugatt9716]

I was just thinking - the chindi rug of papers!!!!😂😊❤

[@karatootie]

YES!!!! Love that Bonté! 💗

[@dorisandujar8277]

Wow did this person really say that🙁

[@LidaJoy]

I buy the paper packs from DT ALL the time! I absolutely love them…they’re always different and include a variety of colors and textures, most of which are handmade. Definitely a great deal and must have for Junk Journalers. 😊

[@kaycfox3013]

I love the paper-packs- perfect for all kinds of things- tags , dangles, backgrounds , tabs, pockets- tiny envelopes- origami or just to use a edger punch out and tuck in pocket, scrappy little note pads - I love the embossed & the hand made with flecks . LOVE haha the possibilities are endless!!

[@karatootie]

I feel the same way! I just went into dollar tree yesterday and I panicked when I didn’t see them, but thankfully they were just moved to an end cap! 😂

[@debjones1028]

I really wish our Dollar Trees near me had all of these things. Basically,I wish every one of their stores carried the same things. What great finds.

[@karatootie]

I feel exactly the same Deb! If I worked for them I’d make sure they’d double all their crafting supplies! I bet they’d make more money too! 💗 Thank you for your comment! 🫶🏼

[@brendacooper7944]

I want to come shop at your Dollar Tree. They have a lot more stuff than the one where I shop!

[@margareta.1505]

I love the idea that you were going to do a dollar tree products junk journal

[@karatootie]

Yay Margaret! I have my stash almost ready and then we’ll start! 💗💗💗

[@jamiearrowood7566]

I pick up1 or 2 of those paper packs when I go there. Every store has a different color and type of paper. I recommend them too.

[@karatootie]

I just stopped into a store today and they didn’t have any! 😭 I will definitely be grabbing more! Thanks for the tip!! 💗

[@littlebirdie2]

FuN!! The paper packs look like off cuts from a paper producer… one with NiCe paper! :)

[@Papermadepretty143]

I love the paper scraps! Very nice and just the right size. I haven't been to our DT in a long time. Looks like I need to make a visit. Thank Ingrid for sharing♥

[@karatootie]

Yes Violet you NEEEEED to go! 😂

[@leirobinson3103]

I’ve always left the paper packs too! Not anymore! I’m so excited and want to look for these! Ingrid, would you ever paint on them? Endless possibilities!

[@karatootie]

Lei, actually last night I almost grabbed one to paint on! I should do a video for all the things they could be used for! I can’t believe how many times I passed them up! 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@deedeemonceaux]

I just found you and I'm so glad! Love DT for junk journal supplies, and yes, I would love to see a journal made from ALL DT stuff! Love your Bible journaling series too. Many love and blessings

[@karatootie]

Thanks Dee Dee and welcome! I am so glad to have you here! Be on the lookout for that video! 💗💗💗

[@debramoore6318]

I'm up to my 3rd pack of Dollar Tree paper scraps. Love them!

[@karatootie]

YAY!! Aren’t they awesome?!! 💗

[@wendyfitz-gerald8134]

I would love to see your rusting technique! great DT video! Thank you for sharing.

[@karatootie]

You got it! Thank you for your comment!! 💗💗💗

[@dianeswanson3107]

I LOVE those paper scraps! That’s exactly what I love! I’m going to try to go there soon! ❤

[@karatootie]

You’ll have to tell me if you get them..I may be borderline obsessed! 😂

[@chellishedd210]

I love those paper packs! The texture is amazing and there's so many pieces! I love layering them in junk journals!

[@cheryllynskey9579]

I am running to my Dollar Tree is nothing else just for the paper scraps! Those look awesome! 😎🤸‍♀

[@karatootie]

I KNNNNOOOOOW! I can’t believe I never noticed it before! 😍😍😍

[@user-hf1rs2wy6f]

Love DT always buy paper packs, paint, napkins and adhesives. Also stock up on graph paper and copy paper too.

[@marilynthigpen2802]

I’m going to get the slanted cut wooden pieces and lay them in a tray. Add some Rosen and have a really cool table top decoration. I’ll add a candle and other stuff. Can not wait!!

[@victoriabergesen6775]

There is so much to find at DT. Thanks for showing things in other aisles, our two local stores don't have much in the Crafters Square. Today I went in just for some garden twine. They had variegated jute twine better quality than before. I bought both rolls, one for gardening and one for tag tops.

[@cherylunderwood1755]

Some awesome ideas

[@karatootie]

Thank you Cheryl!! You’re awesome yourself! 💗🫶🏼

[@rebecca3667]

I have passed by multiple times myself thank you so much for inspiring to look again!

[@JustJournalingwithPossumPatty]

Howdy, Ingrid! New friend here. Your video popped up in my suggestion selection and I just had to see what you found at your DT! All very cool ideas. I usually look at the paper scrap pack but I have so many paper scraps I pass it over. I do believe that it would be worth it for the hand made papers though. Looking forward to seeing your DT journal! I challenged myself to make a Valentine's Day journal with all DT items a while back... super fun to think up ways to use different sorts of items. Happy Sunday! Blessings & Bubbles...oooOOO

[@katietrout2323]

I would have chosen the sticks!

[@kristinebrousseau8626]

That darn store has had me obsessed. Now after JJing, i totally SCAN EVERY dept ALWAYS!😁, BUT thank u i had no idea one could biy bulk, THANK YOU, going to see if u listed the website. Happy crafting

[@cherylbaker473]

I have used the kits. So cute I incorporated on my journal cover. Enjoyed your video.

[@mcuttercreations]

I love their paper packs I’ve found some really nice paper in them❤

[@wildredcherrycheri]

I love the paper so much.. On my list for sure...

[@designhope]

I enjoyed your Dollar Tree guide😍❤, I wish my store had those paper packs (they are really nice)

[@karatootie]

I can’t believe I’ve walked by them before! Keep checking they’re coming out with new items every week…but stuff is selling out quickly 😕

[@staceyhaleysmit3451]

Love 💕 all the ideas you suggested in this video…have a great day…and would love to see your rusting tutorial..

[@karatootie]

Coming soon! 💗

[@cheryl4926]

Great video! I haven't been to DT in awhile, but now I need to go and pick up so many things for journaling! I found so many things to use from your trip there! I'm glad you took us! Thanks! 🌺⭐🌻

[@karatootie]

Yes you NEED to go! 😂 Thanks for your comment!! 💗💗💗

[@leighlarson206]

Hi friend! Yes, please do a video on rusting the binder rings. I want your fool-proof method! Also, do a trivia question on the number of times you said the papers in the paper pack are “So good!”…..For a prize giveaway😅 You know I’m teasing and you know I ♥️ you!!! I’ll be 🏃‍♀️ to my Dollar Tree tomorrow for those paper packs I’ve always passed up before.

[@karatootie]

😂😂😂 It’s like Peter pecked a pickled pepper (or however that goes) I will definitely do a video on the rusting technique! 💗💗💗

[@KnowHimKnowPeace8]

The paper pack is a good find. I purchased a very similar pack at Walmart for $3. I think that the Dollar Tree pack is definitely a better value🙂💜.

[@SophieGrace57]

3/4 x 3/4 scrabble tiles

[@anitabarker3125]

❤the paper packs and the video.

[@staceyhaleysmit3451]

I use the rubber lace doilies to coffee dye my paper… I use them outside and lay the paper on the lawn and use a spray bottle to spray coffee/water on the doilies and then pull the doilies off the paper and let them dry in the sun..

[@karatootie]

I’m not sure why, but I tried using some in between my coffee dyed papers but they were just soaked. That is a great tip! I’m going to try it out next time I coffee dye! Thank you Stacey! 💗💗💗

[@lisaann3063]

Oooh I’m going to try that. I couldn’t figure out how they get the mark of the doily on the paper like that so I’ll have to try!

[@annewatkins5338]

I would like to see how to use napkins in a notebook

[@karatootie]

Will do Anne! ❤

[@stormyswann6177]

You are very thorough. Thank you

[@sinnehrose2713]

So cute, so good! And too cute and ummmm so good Lmao 🤣 😂😂 no but seriously, I’m going to have to pick up as many packs as I can of these. I hear you they put a corny one in the front and all the good stuff, mixed media with the kind textures, kinda cool rustic slices & good grit looks fun to work with! I know where I’m going to tomorrow! Oh and i’m personally in the new chapter and or phase my life where a journal any cool to do list is essential. My local library just happen to have a journaling class/meditation and vision board for the next four weeks. Really good stuff. Appreciate your video. Thank you.

[@measureoncecuttwice]

OMG - I cannot believe you equated the paper scraps with the chindi rugs - because that's exactly what I thought! Must go grab some now. And I LOVE that little tree so much!!

[@karatootie]

The tree is so cute!!! I’ll have to remember to take a picture to show you my little woodland scene! Chindi papers 😂

[@measureoncecuttwice]

@@karatootie YES - I wanna seeeee!!

[@craftingwithkarin5651]

You could also see the folded doily into the signature

[@kpitmvg]

This video came up after watched a #junkjournaljanuary2024 vid! So good ! Right on time 😂 thank you. I love ‘all things cute’ 😜😉

[@jsymonds35]

Great video!

[@karatootie]

Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it!! 💗

[@dawndillon7043]

Would love to see your rusting video

[@karatootie]

Dawn it’s already posted 🩷 If you click on my channel it’s the 15th video in (I believe) 🩷

[@xonetra]

Awesome finds 🎉TFS

[@karatootie]

Hey Netra! Thanks for stopping by friend! 💗

[@shoshanah21]

Viewing this in mid-June 2024, and our store (city area pop. 500,000+) still doesn't have most of what you've gotten.

[@karatootie]

I can totally understand your frustration. I’ve seen several tiktoks at DT, and mine doesn’t have any of the things 😫 I wonder if it’s up to the manager of the store to order? I’m going to ask around! I have some more dt haul videos, maybe those will have some items?? Hugs! 💗

[@vivilovespaper]

Great video! I need to get to my Dollar Tree to see if they have the paper packs ( and more….) Thanks Ingrid 🥰 Update: I found the paper packs at Dollar Tree (they were ‘hidden’ on the bottom shelf - wow - such great paper pieces! Thanks Ingrid 🥰

[@karatootie]

YAY! Yay for persistence and for finding them!! Woo-Hoo!! Aren’t they fabulous?!! 💗

[@bsher1593]

Our Dollar Tree isn't nice and neat and organized like yours - everything is in piles and it is hard to shop!

[@karatootie]

Ugh yes some are definitely cleaner than others! When I lived in MI my local DT was spotless…it was “almost” like a boutique. I just posted a new video and I had to mute most of the background from people yelling 😂

[@dianegardner9557]

Sticks

[@BBare.]

Junk journals are supposed to be made of repurposed stuff. Not new craft supplies. Great things for journals just not junk journals.

[@dawnettesnyder-vance6541]

Might be a good idea to learn some new descriptive words. Too many "cute" and "good".

[@lynnkutschke4362]

Ok Karen !

[@spicekeri]

The butterflies were my favorite! So pretty!

[@karatootie]

Butterflies are always a good idea! 🦋💜
